Kanye West has been locked out of his Twitter account after making a slew of anti-Semitic comments – as Jewish celebrities and politicians condemned him for the vile online abuse.
The rapper, 45, declared war on the Jewish community following his controversial Paris Fashion Week show, where he showcased his White Lives Matter shirts.
He was today barred from posting on his Twitter account after the shocking threats – just hours after being restricted on Instagram.
In a post, that has since been removed by Twitter, Kanye wrote: ‘I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE.’
He added: ‘The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also.
‘You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.’
A Twitter spokesman said: ‘The account in question has been locked due to a violation of Twitter’s policies.’ This means that the rapper will be unable to post.
